clothes whenever they enter and stay inside the University premises.
On regular school days, Senior High School Students are required to

prescribed textbooks, the lists of which are posted outside the Bookstore. The
University Bookstore sells textbooks and school supplies at reasonable and
competitive prices, but students are free to obtain their textbooks and school
supplies elsewhere, if they so prefer.
SCHOOL ACTIVITIES
To supplement classroom work, actual field excursions and educational

tours with parental consent and under the supervised direction of class
advisers are undertaken by the students in all curriculum year levels.
Instructional techniques are supplemented by a variety of audio-visual
materials housed in a separate audio-visual room.
The student body of the high school publishes a high school student
organ, The Scroll, completely managed and edited by the students. Students
are encouraged to write and publish original articles in this school organ. They
are given the opportunity to express themselves freely through writing.
Managing the school paper imbues the students’ minds with the significance of
responsibility and work, and plays an important role in the development of a
mature studentry. A yearbook, The Blue and Gold, is a project of, and
published annually, by the senior high school students.
Quiz shows in all subject areas are held to reinforce the learning
acquired in classrooms and enhance mental alertness.
Page 29
The prayer room in Room C-14 is open during school hours, where the
students of all denominations may mediate.

experience to reinforce the lessons learned in ordinary classrooms.
PHYSICAL EDUCATION, SPORTS AND UNIVERSITY WEEK PROGRAMS

protection, students who participate are required to secure inexpensive student

enjoy the benefits of its membership. Qualified students are encouraged to
participate in the NCAA Junior Division sports of basketball, chess, football,
softball, swimming, tennis, track and field, and volleyball.

TUITION AND OTHER FEES
The tuition fee for the year or for the summer session for each student
will depend upon the total number of units taken. Miscellaneous and other
fees may be charged depending on the year level and subject enrolled. The
details of tuition and miscellaneous fees are available at the Student Account
Section of the Accounting Office.
A “prompt payment discount” of 10% of the tuition fee is given if full

payment of all tuition fees and miscellaneous fees is made before the opening
of classes (Prompt Payment Discount). However, if payment is made through
credit card, the “prompt payment discount” is reduced to 7.5%.

Further information about prompt payment discount schedule and the

deadline for enjoying such privilege may be obtained at the Student Account
Section at Room A-13.
Students who will pay tuition fees and miscellaneous fees after the
prompt payment discount period but on or before the 11th day from the
opening of classes can no longer avail the prompt payment discount and will
be charged the full published rate.
Students who are not able to pay tuition and miscellaneous fees in full
on or before 11th day from the opening of classes shall automatically be
considered as paying on “installment basis” and shall be charged the
installment rates.
Students who pay on installment basis shall be charged an “Incomplete

Down-payment fine” of Five Hundred (Php 500.00) if full payment is not made
on or before 11th day from the opening of classes.

required on installment accounts as they become due.
The last day of enrolment without fine is the first day of regular classes.

installment and all pertinent miscellaneous fees have been paid, in addition to
the other requirements for enrolment.

of the faculty to submit the final grade on time. In which in case, the student
shall not be charged any amount.

miscellaneous fees pertaining to the subject withdrawn, which has already

For the summer session of any division, the policy on refunds, either on
the cash basis or on the installment basis, will remain the same as for the
regular session, except for the difference in grace periods. For the grace period
of fifteen (15) calendar days after the beginning of classes during the regular
Page 34
session, the summer equivalent will be two (2) calendar days; where it was

from or suspension of classes for any reason whatsoever.

ID CARDS
Student identification cards (IDs) are issued at the beginning of the

school year. The IDs should always be attached to the shirt or blouse of a
student while in school. Presentation of the ID card is required, among others,
when entering and leaving the campus, borrowing athletics equipment,
securing examination slips, availing of medical/dental services, and applying
for the use of school facilities. Students should be careful with their ID’s as any
student who loses his identification card pays a replacement fee before he is
issued another one. They can obtain temporary gate passes only pending
recovery/replacement of lost ID, if they are accompanied to the office by their
parents. Temporary gate passes are good for a duration of one (1) week only.
